Influences of an entrainment–mixing parameterization on numerical simulations of cumulus and stratocumulus clouds [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2022 Different entrainment–mixing processes can occur in clouds; however, a homogeneous mixing mechanism is often implicitly assumed in most commonly used microphysics schemes.

Competing Effects of Droplet Sedimentation and Wind Shear on Entrainment in Stratocumulus
Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2019 The joint effect of droplet sedimentation and wind shear on cloud top entrainment in stratocumulus is investigated with direct numerical simulations. Although it is well understood that droplet sedimentation weakens entrainment while wind shear enhances ...

Human chronotypes from a theoretical perspective. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The endogenous circadian timing system has evolved to synchronize an organism to periodically recurring environmental conditions. Those external time cues are called Zeitgebers. When entrained by a Zeitgeber, the intrinsic oscillator adopts a fixed phase

A Theoretical Study on Seasonality
Frontiers in Neurology, 2015 Additionally to being endogenous, a circadian system must be able to communicate with the outside world and align its rhythmicity to the environment. As a result of such alignment, external Zeitgebers can entrain the circadian system.

Quantitative Prediction of Air Entrainment Defects in Casting Filling Process [PDF]
Archives of Foundry Engineering, 2023 Air entrainment defect is a common type of defect in the casting process, which will seriously affect the quality of the casting. Numerical simulation technology can predict the occurrence of casting defects according to the evolution law of liquid metal

A large-eddy simulation exploration of the assumptions used in retrieving entrainment from a mixing diagram approach with ground-based remote sensors [PDF]
Atmospheric Measurement TechniquesEntrainment is a crucial component of the atmospheric boundary layer (BL) moisture and heat budget. While usually thought of as only entrainment flux, entrainment within the mixed layer budget equation is really composed of two terms: the flux of a ...

Entrainment in the master equation [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2018 The master equation plays an important role in many scientific fields including physics, chemistry, systems biology, physical finance and sociodynamics. We consider the master equation with periodic transition rates. This may represent an external periodic excitation like the 24 h solar day in biological systems or periodic traffic lights in a model of

Enhancement of synchronization in a hybrid neural circuit by spike timing dependent plasticity [PDF]
, 2003 Synchronization of neural activity is fundamental for many functions of the brain. We demonstrate that spike-timing dependent plasticity (STDP) enhances synchronization (entrainment) in a hybrid circuit composed of a spike generator, a dynamic clamp ...
